THE LONELINESS OF THE LONG DISTANCE RUNNER (1962)
Thursday 19 July, 12.00

42nd STREET (1933)
Thursday 16 August, 12.00

The classic film about staging a do-or-die Broadway musical.
Complete with an egomaniacal but hugely talented Producer, dazzlingly choreographed music-and-dance numbers and a last-minute leading lady replacement (an unknown of course), 42nd STREET remains an entertaining, frantically paced musical comedy.
With star turns from both Warner Baxter as Producer Julian Marsh and Ruby Keeler as the new star rising, Peggy Sawyer, 42nd STREET set the standard for excellence in filmmaking, a standard that still shines bright today.
